I think that finding a way into somebody's life that's sort of off from a side angle can tell you more about that person than a greatest hits approach.

It's an odd thing to go to New York to shoot a movie that is set in Indiana.

The thing I've noticed about life is that it just keeps coming at you. And it can be a real bummer. What you need to remember is that you're not alone. You've got friends and family. That's how we get by. We talk and share and eat cake and giggle in the dark, even when we're scared - no, especially when we're scared.

No piece of writing is ever finished. It’s just due.

It is interesting to be here and to see that for certain actors they have to live in a way that you think of nobody living anymore except for in small towns. They have such elaborate double lives.

I really think the biopic thing so rarely works, because peoples lives dont have a dramatic shape that can be satisfying.
